"We welcome all fans to Dodger Stadium throughout each season," said Dodger Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Lon Rosen in statement. "We are especially proud to welcome and recognize the LGBT community of Los Angeles, an integral part of the city and of the Dodgers community."

The Dodgers have planned the night in conjunction with Tom Whitman and Flip Events. Fans can purchase tickets to the event at www.dodgers.com/out using the promotional code OUT. You can't make this stuff up.

Included in LGBT Night Out at Dodger Stadium is a celebrity first pitch, the national anthem performed by a special guest with the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles.

“The Dodgers have been standing on the right side of history from the days of Jackie Robinson through today,” said Whitman, senior vice president Flip. “LGBT Night Out on September 27 will be an amazing night for baseball fans, for the LGBT community and everyone who is true blue.”
